Wednesday, September 8th (EVEN)

6th:  Today's vocabulary word is CTRL Key.  A key on a computer keyboard that is pressed in combination with another key to activate a shortcut.  I will be handing out a list of the keyboard shortcuts today so that you can see how you did during your detective work last week and then we will use each of the shortcuts to see how they work.  We will also be start learning about the big boxy things sitting on your tables.  This reading will get us started and then we will see how much we know by completing a couple of activities: activity 1 & activity 2.


7th:  We will be continuing with our webs in class today.  If you finish with the content before it is time to leave you can add some new areas to your web such as Links (links to other websites that have similar items),
Employment Opportunities (paragraph about what you are looking for in an employee, questions you would ask in an interview, what positions you are hiring and how much they pay, etc.), Grand Opening (Information about your grand opening as well as any special promotions you are running that day or contests you will have, stuff you will be giving away, etc.).  You can also be creative and add anything other information that you would like to include on your website.  Today will be your last time block to work on this web and I will be checking it at the start of Friday's class.

8th:  Continue to work on your podcasts scripts.  Here are the documents from last week:

• short article about what to consider when writing your script
•  rubric for the assignment
• what makes a podcast a "good" podcast 

Before you get started take this short quiz on podcasts.

Your podcast script should be complete by the end of the class on Friday.
